Positives:

  • Indoor Attraction: Fully covered and climate-controlled, ideal for rainy or hot days.
  • Compact Layout: All exhibits are close together, making it easy to see everything without long walks.

Challenges:

  • Peak Crowds: Gets busy on weekends and holidays, which can make tunnels feel crowded.
  • Limited Seating: Bench space is minimal; bring a small foldable seat if you need a rest.
  • Japanese Signage: Most exhibit labels and show announcements are in Japanese only.

The aquarium isn't very big, but it's very pretty. It has a good variety of fish, and the decor is very pretty. You can also take the opportunity to visit Legoland right next door. Outside, depending on the day, you'll find some festivals with craft and food stalls. The aquarium has a very pretty blue color, which makes the photos look better.

🎟️ I don't think it's worth getting the combined ticket with Legoland. ⏱️ You can walk through the whole thing in just 10 minutes. 🐠 Just a few aquariums and touching starfish is the only real activity. 😐 Nothing particularly interesting.

Ticket set available to purchase together with LEGO LAND. It's a small house aquarium and decorated with LEGO blocks. Could spend half an hour here after done with LEGO LAND.

I liked this place, but i feel it lacks content, it lacks more fish and more stuff to interact with. I paid for the backstage tour, it was only in Japanese, which is good, so I can practice my Japanese, the guide was nice, but it wasn't either a big deal. This could've been included in the whole package as well.

Great little place. We did the behind the scene tour and it was really interesting. The tour is in Japanese only. But as we were the only people on the tour as we came on a weekday, the guide made a huge effort to ensure we understand. She did everything from actions and using her phone to do translation to English. The behind the scene tour was pretty good.
